Although it's completely wrapped up, it's easily noticeable that the car's exterior falls inline with the model in the leaked image. The next Swift features an upright front-end with a gaping grille, new headlamps with LED DRLs and contoured front fenders inspired by the Suzuki Baleno. The rear-end has smaller taillamps with LED lighting and door handles on the B-Pillar.

The leaked images revealed the interior, which adopts a cleaner layout. It comes equipped with a new steering wheel, twin pod instrument dials, new center console design with circular HVAC vents, Smartplay infotainment system, and new HVAC controls.
